Robot statistics correct as of its most recent appearance on the show

Impact was a robot that competed in Dutch Robot Wars. It was a thwackbot with a large hammer for a weapon. The hammer was covered in orange fur, and the team wore matching orange vests. The team were good sports, and had no qualms about their robot's fur being set on fire; going as far as to deliberately drive over the flame pit to make it happen.

The team also competed in Dutch Series 1 with X-Bot and Dutch Series 2 with S.O.X-Bot (Son of X-Bot) which was one third of the clusterbot √3. They intended to enter UK Series 7 with a new robot called Deep Impact, but failed to qualify due to electrical problems.

Robot HistoryEdit

Series 2Edit

Impact's first battle was against Beaverbot. It stood up to Beaverbot's spinning attacks well, and then drove it into a wall to silence its weapon. Beaverbot's aerial had come off, so it was immobile. To celebrate, Impact set its hammer on fire using the flame jet. In the next round, Impact met Twister. It hit Twister with its hammer, and Twister skipped into the air but stayed upright. It came in on the attack head-on, and Twister's blade ripped off one of its prongs. Twister turned and struck Impact again, smashing off its front panels. Impact's hammer caught fire again, and Twister obliterated the last pieces of Impact's front. Impact was no longer moving, so Refbot counted it out. Impact was placed on the floor flipper (with the team chanting "flip, flip, flip" along with the crowd). After Impact was flipped, Matilda came in and inflicted more damage, tearing off its base, its electronics box, and one of its drive motors. Dead Metal dragged it over the flame pit and left it to burn.
